drilling=consistency

 

when you
practice the same thing over and over
it becomes muscle memory.

when i'm
in a match
i'm not really thinking.
i feel less pressure,
it's natural.

it's simple.
if you miss one or two,
you don't give up on it,
you rely on your practice,
you execute.

drilling=consistency


Again & Again

When you practice, again and again,
The rhythm sinks deep, like ink in the pen.
Muscle memory guides your hand,
What once felt heavy, you now command.

In a match, the third shot flies,
No longer thought, no anxious ties.
Less pressure felt, it flows with ease,
A natural rhythm, like a summer breeze.

Over the net, it's clear and true,
Miss one or two? You'll see it through.
No giving up, no turning away,
Your practice holds you steady in play.

Drill by drill, the skill takes shape,
Consistency grows, no room to escape.
So keep the focus, the effort will pay,
Mastery blooms in the grind each day.
